On 8 October 2017, Aegilops-Network for Biodiversity and Ecology in Greece farmers’ association (http://www.aegilops.gr) in collaboration with the Union of Organic Farmers of Northern Greece hosted the fourth CAPSELLA workshop. Around 40 participants (farmers, consultants, researchers) took part to the workshop.

The workshop took place at the Farm of Ecological Agriculture, a biodynamic farm part of the Aegilops network in Thermi, Thessaloniki.

The workshop was divided in a seminar and a field part. The seminar included presentations followed by open discussion sessions about key aspects of soil fertility management. The topics discussed are: soil biodiversity, soil analysis and chemical fertility management, functional biodiversity, and use of reduced tillage.

On farm, in groups, the participants had the occasion to do a spade test and register the information using CAPSELLA application. Participants were involved in evaluating the application in a dedicated discussion session and by filling in a satisfaction questionnaire.

Capsella has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 688813
